SF 9 TOPS IPON RATEING LIST BY 70 + ELO

2018.02.05Stockfish 9 is the new number one in both lists. A plus of 72 Elo in the full list and 78 Eloin the more important IPON-RRRL. VERY impressive! If the increase in playing strength compared to SF8 is really that big can be discussed as SF8 did notuse a contempt. On the other hand the first engine not using a contempt is the no 4 - Shredder ... As all 3 top engines now 'exploit' the rating systems playing against many engines it somehow levels theground :-)
